Main routes: I-70, Highway F, and Highway J
Mile marker 200 on I-70 is Wright City, with exits 199 and 200 serving the town off Highways H, F and J. Homes fill most of it, and light to heavy industrial businesses and small retail fill the rest. We pave driveways and parking lots for both, plus the access drives that connect them.
The population grew about 56 percent between 2010 and 2020, from 3,119 to 4,881, so much of the pavement here is young and more is still going in. A new drive that skips base work fails early. Ours get a graded, compacted rock base and hot-mix asphalt placed in lifts. Estimates are free and the work is 25% off. Call (866) 490-7680.
A driveway at a new build and one at a house laid out generations ago need different attention. New ground settles where backfill was never compacted; old drives wear out from the base up. Either way we dig out the soft material, compact rock in layers and pave with hot mix, typically 2 to 3 inches compacted for home use, graded so water heads for the street.
Driveway pavingIndustrial buildings, shops and churches near the I-70 exits take loaded trucks along with daily parking. We build deeper base under drive lanes and aprons, lighter base under car stalls where that makes sense, pave in lifts and grade to planned low points. A lot can be phased so it keeps working through the job.
Parking lot pavingSubdivision streets, industrial access drives and farm lanes around the city carry school buses, trailers and delivery trucks. Each gets a compacted base, a crown that sheds water, and ditches and culverts sized to the flow. Asphalt thickness is matched to the traffic, not laid at one depth everywhere.
Road constructionGeneral asphalt paving in Wright City means matching the fix to the problem. Surface cracks on a firm base call for an overlay. Soft, sinking spots call for digging out and rebuilding the base first. We show you the difference on the walk-through.
Asphalt paving
I-70 runs on or near the divide here between Missouri River drainage to the south and Cuivre River drainage to the north, so which way your ground falls depends on where you stand. Loess and glacial till uplands drain slowly either way. We find the fall, compact rock in lifts and grade so water leaves.
A cheap bid usually gets cheap somewhere you cannot see. Ask what depth of stone goes down, how thick the asphalt is after rolling, and who fixes it if water still stands.
Typical ranges. Your Wright City estimate is sized to the soil, the traffic and the drainage on your property.

A hairline crack in a young drive is often surface shrinkage and fills easily. A crack that keeps widening, or one with a dip beside it, means the base is moving, usually from settled backfill. We look at the shape of the ground around it before recommending a patch or a rebuild.
Yes. A truck lot is a base question first: deeper compacted rock under the drive lanes and aprons, asphalt placed in lifts and rolled, and grading that keeps water off. New asphalt needs time to cure before heavy loads, so we plan the sequence around your deliveries.
No. Fresh asphalt in Wright City needs time to cure before it is sealed, typically several months and often up to a year. Sealing too early can trap oils in the pavement. After that, sealing every few years helps it resist water, sun and salt.
Most Wright City driveways are a one to two day job. You can usually walk on the surface the same evening and drive on it after a couple of days, so plan to park on the street for that stretch.
We pave all around Wright City, across Warren County and the rest of greater St. Louis on both sides of the river.
